Clerk Police Jury.
The Verdict Unanimous.

w. D. Suit, Druggist, Bippus, Ind, tes-
tities: 81 can recommend Electric Bitters
as the very best remedy. Every bottle
sold has given relief in every case. One
man took six bottles, and was cured of
rheumatism of 10 years standing" Abra-
ham Haro, druggist, Belleville, Ohio, af-
firms: "The best selling medicine have
ever handled in my 20 years. experience,
is Electric Bitters" Thousands of others
have added their testimony, so that the
verdict is unanimous that Electric Bittors
do cure all diseases of the Liver, Kidneys
or Blood. Only half dollar bottle at
Jacob Geiger's drug Store.
The election on the railroad tax
passed off quietly and there was very
little opposition to it manifested at
this place. The announcement by
the Returning officer, that the major
ity of the votes cast both in numbers
and amount have been in favor of said
tax, has created considerable discus
sion as to the proper Interpretation of
the law relative to the voting of a
Railroad tax. Some are contending
that it requires majority of the tax
payers of the parish regardless of the
fact whether they all vote or not i.
while others maintain that it not only
requires majority of the votes cast.
Which shall it be?-[ Haryisonburg

Give Them a Chance.

That is to say, your lungs. Also
all your breathing machinery. Very
wonderful machinery it is. Not only
the larger air passages, bnt thousands
of little tubes and cavities leading
from them. When these are clogged
and choked with matter which ought
not to be there, your lungs cannot half
do we'll. Call it cold, cough, Group,
pneumonia, catarrh, consumption or
any of the family of throat and nose
and head and lung distractions, all
had. All ought to be got rid Of.
There is just one sure way to get rid of
them. That is to take Boschee's Ger
man Syrup, which any druggist will
sell you at rs cents a bottle. Even if
everything else has failed You, you
may depend upon this for certain. Do
not fail to try it.
DEATH OF A Coop MAN.-Yester-
day morning at 6 o'clock, Mr.. Joseph
McEvoy breathed his last at his resi-
dence in this city, on Market street.
For several years he had been suf-
ferer from acute rheumatism, and for
the past two OF three weeks his health
became SO poor that his death was
only a question of a very short time.
Mr.. MeEvoy removed to Shreveport
from Alexandra, La, about fifteen
years ago, and engaged in the jewelry
business, in which he remained con-
tinuously to the time of his death. He
was a kind, intelligent, and, above
all, strictly an honest and honorable
man. In all the relations of life,
whether in or out of health, we found
him always pleasant and agreeable.
He was indeed charitable man.
Although possessed of limited means
he was ever ready to contribute his
mite to every charitable enterprise
and no deserving person ever went
away from him empty-handed. He
was of a quiet, unobtrusive disposition
and was universally esteemed by all
who knew him for his sterling worth
and many noble traits of character
and the news of his death Yesterday
morning was received with universal
expressions of regret. Mr.. McEvoy
leaves a devoted wife and one daugh
ter, grown young lady, to mourn his
death, who in their sad bereavement,
have the sympathy of the entire com
munity. Mr.. McEvoy served through
the war as Confederate soldier and
was member of the Benevolent As
ISOLATION of Confederate Veterans Of
this place, who attended his funeral il,
a body from his late residence, this
morning at 0 o'clock. Shreveport
Journal, Sept. 81.
Mr.. 7. E. Wiley, LAG Chambers
street, New York City, says Ayers
Sarsaparilla cured him of dry anG
scaly humor, from Which he had sui
fered intolerably. He adds: 81 have
not now Flemish on my body, and
my cure is wholly due to Ayers Sar
'saparilia.

IT is gratifying to know that nei-
ther factors in this campaign is charged
with an alliance with the Lottery Co.
The Supreme Court of the United
States have decided that the charter
of that company can be repealed ouly
by an amendment to the Constitution
of the State, aud that virtually placed
the Lottery Company out of politics,
as it can now rely on its chartered
rights. Not threatened with adverse
legislation, the company seems to be
taking no interest in this political con
test. The Democratic cancus at the
last session of the Legislature very
wisely determined not to create any
new company, and not to interfere
with the present company, and for the
first time Legislation went on without
any charge of "Lottery Ring" being
m lde. This action of the Democratic
caucus was commendable, and in our
o,inien-the party should endorse it
aud forever retire the Lottery Com
pany FROM Louisiana politics.

taking to the woods, so to speak,
The McEnery men are ready with the

IGNORANT OF THE RUDIMENTs.

Many .,orie, illustrate the gross isno.
rance Of even intelligent Europeans con-
eerning American affairs. This ohe !.
youehed for as the narrative OF an actual
occurrence. by New York lady who has
recently returned from Germany:
A fair American was . gue., in Berlin
a, ball given by the officers OF the En-
peror's body guard. aud met there al .e-
compli.hed German lady who asked her
something about Cuzeo. She replied that
she didn't happen to know anything
about Cuxco that Il must be some small
town. and there were 30 many small
town. in the Uai,ed States ,ha, Il was
impossible for one to know the name Of
them all.
"Oh, dear" was the reply; "how
dreadfully ignorant Of the rudimsn,s you
Americans are
The American lady was piqued at the
con,emp,uou. way in which this wa.
spoken, and de,erminsd to find the
whereaboa,. Of CaIeo. After searching
an atlas and a gazetteer she discovered
that I, vas no, in the United States a.
all, but In South America. Meeting hsr
German sequain,anee again few days
sfterwsrd, she told the latter Of her dis.
covery. confidently expecting an apology.
The Berlin lady simply replied;
"Oh, dear! Though, that the feel
ing be,w the North and the South
had ell died out J"
